on or about the first Of April. These ru-
morn have been denied in Jacksonville,
and while the powers that be- have
not yet let the public into the secret,
the above information comes from a
most reliable source. The fact that the
old hnse was a paying one, and the
further fact that the Clyde Line has
failed to run its boats up the river,
and that there is an excellent opening
for the Charleston boats, but adds force
to the rumor.
The gentleman further stated that
this movement was but the forerunner
OF a direct line of steamers from New
York to Palatka, which would be run
in connection with the railroads center
ing in this city. This line, we learn. is
being earnestly discussed by railroad
and steamboat men. and the outlook is
good for the establishment Of such a line
in time for next seasons business. With
such steamboat and railroad connections,
what prediction would be too bright for
the future commercial prosperity Of the

THE BASE BALL GAME.

Big Score.

Some Good Playing Notwit hstansiing the
Big Score.
Yesterday afternoon a match game OF
base ball between the Welaka and the
Palatka mines took place on the base ball
grounds, near the railway junction.
There were many causes why the score
grew to such numbers, the main trouble
being the high and cold wind.
The game was called at about O'Clock
by Mr. j. E. Baldwin, who acted as UNI
pire, Messrs. Kennedy, Of Welaka, and
Stewart, of Palatka, acted as scorers
The Palatka nine first went to the bat
and scored only one run, which the
welaka nine followed by scoring two
runs. On the next inning the Palatkas
scored three and allowed the Welakas
to make only one run. The third inning
resulted in six runs for the Palatka club,
their opponents drawing blank. In
the fourth inning the Welakas made
several bad plays. allowing the Palatka
club to run up a score of fourteen runs,
the Welakas only getting four. In the
fifth inning neither club made run, and
in the sixth the Welakas scored to the
Palatkas nothing. In the seventh and
eighth inning the Palatka club made
three runs for each, while the Welakas
scored eight in the first and two in the
last. AT this time it was too dark fol-
the game to proceed, and it was ended
with the score standing thirty to twenty
| four in favor of the Palatka club.
The game was witnessed by quite
number of our citizens, and some of ths
good people of Welaka and other points
up the river, who took the hveliest inter
est in the proceedings, and the goos
plays were roundly applauded. A mucl
larger croud would have been presen
had the day been more pleasant.
The young men composing the Welak
nine are well known gentlemen of Sout
Putnam, and we will always be gla
to have them visit our city individual
or collectively. They are clever gentle
men, and know just how to make friend
Of all with whom they meet.

An Aged Lady Breaks Her Thigh In Fall
ing ON the Beach.
On Tuesday last, Mrs. Sixbury, of
Sycamore, ILL.,, while walking on the
North Beach at st. Augustine, was the
victim of sad accident, in which
her thigh bone was broken. She is sis
ter of Mr.. I. l.. Elwood, the millionaire
barbed wire manufacturer, who has a
beautiful winter home in Palatka, and
was with him and his party at the time
Of the accident. They were making a
tour of the State before settling down at
their home here, and while walking
along the smooth beach near the surf.
Mrs. Sixbury stepped back to get beyond
the spray Of wave, when her foot
caught in her skirts and she fell tothe
ground. She is about seventy two years
Of age, and weighs two hundred and
twenty-five pounds, and fell with such
force as to snap the bone just above the
knee.
The lady was brought to Palatka,
where she is under the skillful care OF
DR. Halves and Ames. While the acct
dent is q very serious one, the physi
clans think that she will have an early re
covery as she is now resting easy, ant
the bone is properly set. Her sister. Mrs
Young, Of Texas. was Immediately tele

A San MateO Grove.

Mr.. E. p. Hiser is the owner of a
splendid young orange grove at San
Mateo, on the banks of the st Johns river,
Just back of the wharf and packing
house. The grove consists of fifteen
hundred splendid young trees, in a most
thrifty condition, and they give promise
of becoming the finest and most produc-
tive in East Florida This seasons crop
amounted to a little more than three
thousand boxes, all of which Were mar
keted in Boston. except three small ship
ments to New York, and the returns
have proven quite satisfactory. Mr.. Hiser
prefers the Boston market to all others,
as his returns from that city have been
more prompt and satisfactory than from
other points.
Speaking of the prospects for the next
crop, he gives it as his opinion that il
will not be a very large one, but is sat
isfied that good prices will more than
make up the difference.
